Raise at least one puppy before you become parents. Make your first mistakes where they're easier to forgive.
Then you have a hound helping raise the tot, which can be very rewarding for everybody.
Alternatively, if you can't stand handling shit; you learn that in short duration "easy mode" first and face less social disfavor for bailing out of the commitment to a puppy.
